THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Iso Restaurant Review:

Since 1984, Iso has been king of the East Village’s medium-priced sushi houses. (For the neighborhood’s best sushi, and higher prices, go to Jewel Bako.) Behind the sushi bar is the framed logo Keith Haring did for the restaurant---the design is emblazoned on the waiters’ T-shirts. And Iso himself still makes sushi, along with a young team of three men. The number of chef’s special platters they turn out is enough to make your fingers ache. Forget the regular menu and order from the daily specials list, a mix of innovative and traditional appetizers, sushi, sashimi and main courses.
